For All the Lost Lyrics
I see my life
As it should be
I see it on screen
It's not like me
You'll never feel it
You'll only fear it
I'll never silence my lips
They're threatening
I wander out
I stand on slowly sinking ground
Against a world that's
Foolish and selfish by design
And they wonder
How I’m still here
That I’m still breathing
Unmoved by fear
Their empty souls
Will never see
They'll never realize
There's more like me
For all the lost
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
Where you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
A worthless thought
Your good intentions fallen short
And living here now
I see your shallowness inside
Where I'm going
I'll never know
But others follow
A life, a death, a word, a breath is gone
We stand alone
In rising water we find a home
We exist to be
All the things you are not
We are the lost
For all the lost
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
Where you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
For all the lost
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
But you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
I am your hopelessness
I am your loneliness
I am your broken heart
I am the misery you create
I am your hopelessness
I am your loneliness
I am your broken heart
I am the misery you create
As it should be
I see it on screen
It's not like me
You'll never feel it
You'll only fear it
I'll never silence my lips
They're threatening
I stand on slowly sinking ground
Against a world that's
Foolish and selfish by design
And they wonder
How I’m still here
That I’m still breathing
Unmoved by fear
Their empty souls
Will never see
They'll never realize
There's more like me
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
Where you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
Your good intentions fallen short
And living here now
I see your shallowness inside
Where I'm going
I'll never know
But others follow
A life, a death, a word, a breath is gone
We stand alone
In rising water we find a home
We exist to be
All the things you are not
We are the lost
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
Where you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
To those who feel unwanted
Faceless inside the crowd
But you've been left behind
We carry on
The hopeful and the hopeless
And try to survive where we know we don't belong
I am your loneliness
I am your broken heart
I am the misery you create
I am your hopelessness
I am your loneliness
I am your broken heart
I am the misery you create
